Purple and yellow are not my favorite colors but you made them work really good here. The other complement the piece adding more interest and creating some boundary to it. I went beck to look for a naked woman but found some parts on it that could be interpreted as a naked woman. I myself see a woman dressed on a long flying dress and she is falling. As for the poem I find them too difficult for me because it is almost more math than poetry. I like the poetic side of poetry. I like drama or romance. You\'ve been quite dramatic with those forms anyway. Thanks Michael. You are always a master for me.

The poem first - What a tortuous exercise this must have been, but you got there, and with a heavy message as well. To that point, perhaps (and this is merely a suggestion) it would have more bite with a word such as \"inexcusable\", or \"fundamental.\"l
As to the art, please save the purple background, and the naked woman within it. To me the yellowish portion appears to be a tattered garment she is removing.
Or is it trying to say something about hunger? - Phil A.

Of the two experiments, the painting is my favorite, Michael. I find it strangely captivating ... but we all know I\'m a little strange myself. Keep the experiments coming!

Good works both , opposite colors are always so vibrant , interesting using glue I do some of my colors on my guitar work mixing acrylic with an epoxy that allows the swirls to stand up without getting muddy

Don\'t want to rain on your parade, Michael, but as far as the painting is concerned, I think I have seen better from you. It is interesting though!
The poem however is just great!

The painting colours (notwithstanding what I said yesterday) I find quite attractive - clean, in a way.
The poem is clever. I think there may be one line break too many between the middle joiner and the mirror section.

Fresh ideas come in new forms, when all the older forms have been used up. It happens in every art form, language, paint, music, sculpting...all. Your poem expresses how some cannot cope with the change, while children and their vastly open minds accept everything at face value. No preconceived ideas of acceptability.
Your artwork, said to me, a light of hope over a blue environment. Sadness being swept away by enlightenment or, perhaps love.
I saw no alphabetical characters or strange dogs. The colors hit me first and remained. I learn from you every day. - Phil

I like art very much and I love to make art in various form. I like abstracts and can stay for a long period of time just reading its infinite message. I\'m learning a lot with my three years old granddaughter. She has so much concentration that if she watchs a cartun movie once it is finished she knows the names of all caracters in an easy way. Plus she immediately begin to use what she learned with the movie. She has her little mind really there, in one piece. Amazing. Your painting to me is like the spectrum of someone running. It has a lot of moviment.

How come when you pour, it is an art, while I pour, it is a big mess. Do you really need to understand an abstract art? I like this one for its color and the way the color appear on the background.
Congratulations. M.E.

Thanks MICHAEL ~ Like the Impressionists and Surrealists I feel PHOTOGRAPHY has made \"Chocolate Box Art\" obsolete ! Therefore all my Art is either Abstract or Science Fiction ~ both genres are postcameric. I am surprized you sent us the wrong orientation of Yellow on Blue 36. If you orientate it clockwise thru 90 you will see it is the rear view of the new cover of LADY IN A VAN ! The splashes are detritus ! Your elegant Poem is about as close as you can get to defining L\'ARTE D\'ABSTRACTE Thanks for sharing also for adding a Poem to our Places FUSION ~ Yours BRIAN

I\'m not against abstract paintings, though I don\'t like too many dark colours. That abstract of yours may sell for about £5 million! Ohh, wishful thinking - or no?!
A fine write and pic Michael.

Not for me, Michael. I need a picture to be a picture, I\'m afraid.

Michael, an incredible poem and a beautiful painting. Being married to a Chinese woman, the first thing I saw in your painting was abstract chinese character brush painting.The next thought was to be open to whatever comes our way.
And finally, your last stanza is right on! I find it unfortunate that children\'s minds are being limited by us adults. WE should be more like children!

It took me a long time to come to understand abstract art, what I found was I need to LOOK at a painting not just see it. It is the same with music to appreciate it properly you need to LISTEN to it and not just hear it.
As you know Michael I have appreciated your abstract works that you have put on this site and this one is no different.
I can always find something within the abstract that calls to me or makes me think.
Good write and that last stanza is so true, children do not have stains in their minds.

A COUPLE OF EDONES
malubotelho said:
Hey Michael, I\'m happy to be back here and read your poetry again. Nice form. I\'m studying a bit but forms still too complicated for me. Answer for your question\' I have very lite sleep and have mostly little dreams that I can remember instantly. Some dreams can affect my next day with happiness, excitement or sadness. Negativity.

Wonderful stuff. Great ideas expressed in a rigid format. Very difficult. Too challenging for me, I have enough trouble with meter and rhymes. On the second Edone (my favorite) I believe un-remembered dreams soon become
De-ja vu. Your artwork is, as always, outstanding. - Phil
